Fredericksburg Estate

Project Spotlight: Fredericksburg Estate

Just off Main Street in Fredericksburg, this Hill Country home didn’t need a whole house full of new doors  it just needed the right two. So that’s where we put our hands: a pair of big, black steel-framed doors with traditional divided lites, built one at a time to land right at the heart of the place. One opens into the entry; the other opens into the living room. Together they’re what greets you when you walk up to the house.

We sized them up tall to meet the vaulted ceilings of the great room, drew them as a matched pair, and finished every piece of hardware to the same matte black so the two openings read as one welcome across the front of the home. They pull the porch, the courtyard, and that good Hill Country light right into where the family room. These are built to last, built to be lived with, and built to feel like they’ve always belonged on this house.
